In addition to her civil rights work, for twenty years she served as the education coordinator for Trinity United Methodist Church.[1] She also founded Ball State University's Nontraditional Student Association.[1] She herself attended Ball State University at the same time as her own daughter and three of her grandsons.[2]

The Conley Library on Centennial Avenue in Muncie, which has closed, was named in her honor.[3] The Vivian Conley Award is named after her, as is the Vivian Conley Memorial Scholarship Fund (a "Ball State University scholarship for nontraditional, part-time students who demonstrate a commitment to the betterment of our community.")[2][4][1] The Vivian Conley Award is given to women who work in art, business, community service, education, environment, health, humanitarian aid, and religion.[4]
